BLT Dip is a creamy dip made with vegetable cream cheese, sour cream, mayo and topped with bacon, chopped lettuce and diced tomatoes!
LOW CARB BLT DIP
Sometimes you come across a really yummy food and you are surprised that it's actually full of good stuff. And it's gluten-free too! I don't follow any special diets. So, personally, I don't necessarily make food choices based on ingredients alone. I just want whatever I am eating to taste good (like this BLT Dip)!

TIPS FOR MAKING THIS CREAMY, CRUNCHY DIP:
- Regular cream cheese can be substituted for the vegetable cream cheese.
- You can also substitute cooked bacon with a bag of real bacon pieces to save time. I used microwaveable bacon here.
- If making this in advance, wait to add the lettuce until just before serving.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED:
1 (7.5 oz.) tub vegetable cream cheese, softened
¼ cup sour cream
¼ cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ cup shredded cheddar (or a mixed cheese)
1 ½ cups chopped Romaine lettuce
2 Roma tomatoes, diced
1 lb. bacon, cooked and crumbled
HOW TO MAKE BLT DIP:
In a medium bowl, combine softened vegetable cream cheese with sour cream, mayonnaise, onion powder and garlic powder. Stir well or use an electric hand mixer to combine.
Stir in shredded cheese.
Spread cream cheese mixture into a pie pan or round dish.
Top with lettuce, tomato and bacon.
Serve with your favorite crackers!

What can you subitute cream cheese with? Can it be made with lowfat products to cut down calories?
Brandie @ The Country Cook
Hi Janis! Absolutely! Since it is not a warm dip, the low fat substitutes will definitely work. 🙂
Eva
No shredded cheese listed in recipe how much? What kind?
Brandie @ The Country Cook
Hi Eva! Sorry about the confusion! It's 1/2 cup (or more if you like!) of shredded cheddar (or mixed cheddar blend). 🙂
